Description: The extremely pretty medieval village of Talmont is characterized by white-washed buildings giving the place a distinctly Mediterranean air. To add to the colour and character of the village, the narrow lanes are full of hollyhocks. Stroll around the narrow streets, visiting the many craft type shops and the Church, (L’église Sainte-Radegonde) on the promontory which from a distance looks like it has sprung out of the sea. A paradise for budding artists!
